Anthroposophia
~
Knocking at the Portals of our Hearts
Dear Friends, for thirty years Zeylmans
van Emmichoven endeavored to keep the impulse of the Christmas
Foundation Meeting and the Being of Anthroposophy alive in the
hearts and minds of Anthroposophists.
It
is the aim of this conference to carry on this task and for
this we hope you will join us.
It
is said that the Christmas Foundation Meeting of 1923/24 was
for Rudolf Steiner the last hope for the Anthroposophical Society.
He stated that it was the third call of the spiritual world.
The other two calls had sounded forth previously but human beings
had not heard them “…such a call, he said, would
as a rule occur three times, but if the call would die away,
not having been heard, it would return to the spiritual realms.
With each missed occasion the conditions and circumstances become
more difficult.”
It is the aim of this conference to heed
Rudolf Steiner’s call at the Christmas Foundation Meeting
so that it does not fade from this earth. He asked those present
to “…hear it as it resounds in your own hearts!
Then you will found here a true community of human beings for
Anthroposophia…”
Rudolf Steiner shares one month earlier: ‘‘If through
living Anthroposophical study we come ever more to experience
the content of Anthroposophy with our hearts and minds, it will
seem to us not only as though the meaning of ideas were filling
our soul…but as though living cosmic beings were entering
into them. Then Anthroposophy will appear to us as a living
being. And then we become aware that something is knocking at
the portal of our hearts saying:
"Let me in, for I am you yourself; I am your true nature!”
